"Had two exterior doors installed by Beantown Home Improvements. They showed up on the day promised but it was too cold to install the doors so they double checked measurements, stored the new doors under my deck and wrapped them in plastic. Returned a few days later and were able to install the new doors. Installation went flawlessly and they did a good job cleaning up. Jarred suggested using pvc trim, glad he recommended it. Doors look great and seal quite well just in time for winter. I will certainly use them again on my next home improvement project and would without hesitation recommend their services."
"Rarely do I leave a review but my experience with McLaughlin was 5 Star. I had cellulose insulation blown into my garage ceiling. The installers Dino and his crew member were great. Very friendly, took the time to explain the process and clean up exceptional !!!! Thanks Dino"
"Evolution Siding did a recent replacement siding project for us at our house. Brandon and his crew were excellent. Even though our project was small, Brandon did everything we asked for in a timely manner. His work was very detailed and he did not waste any materials. His pricing was very competitive and they cleaned up at the end of both days. Brandon was great to deal with and communicated well. I would highly recommend Brandon, his crew, and Evolution Siding for your next project."
"Edison and his crew were terrific and we couldn't be happier with the results. He was professional, responsive and even when they encountered some challenges with the gradation of the ground itself to install our fence they came up with a creative solution. I would reccomend Edison and his company for your home project and we plan on using him in the future for others. Thanks Edison!"
"We researched contractors for a month, got 3 quotes and compared them to each other. 2 were close in pricing , the other was 40% more, probably because the big name and high pressure tactics. In the end we hired Remodel or Renew home Improvement. The professionalism and care they showed us in the bidding process transferred to the install. They started the job (a 16x16 deck, TREX) on a Thursday, had the inspections and finished a beautiful deck in a week. We are thrilled with their care for our home and the ease of the process. We would highly recommend them to anyone."
"5+ for service and quality. The other companies we spoke to didnâ t make our job a priority. We needed to reinsulate after a frozen pipe in our 4 season porch. We met them on Saturday and they did our job that Sunday. If you have a job that needs to be given a priority, call these people. Another company told us 6-8 weeks after waiting 10 days for an appointment. It is a family business that takes pride in their work and customer service. Dad has raised two amazing sons that we met."

"Overall experience was good. One problem after they were done. They did not remove covering on lights or smoke detector. When asked to return to remove them they agreed to come but never showed up."
Most modern egress windows installed in basements open outward into a window well, although some older homes have in-swing windows. Egress windows, like casement windows used in other parts of the home, such as bedrooms and bathrooms, may open inward, and these windows are often larger than outward-opening windows.
Depending on size, material, and labor, two windows can cost between $600 and $1,600.
The proper way to install a window well is to measure the window, dig a hole deeper and wider than the window, place a drainage tube and cap, anchor the well to the foundation, caulk the seam, and backfill the hole. The job requires tools such as a hammer drill and auger and some heavy digging. Proper placement and window well installation are critical to preventing water from leaking into the window.
Finding a reputable contractor for an egress window installation involves researching and vetting potential candidates. Start by searching for local professionals, reading customer reviews, and checking their websites for a portfolio of their work.
Once you have a shortlist, ask the following questions to ensure they are qualified:
• Are you licensed and insured?
• What experience do you have installing egress windows?
• Can you provide references from previous customers?
• Do you perform the work yourself or use subcontractors?
• What is the estimated project timeline and your current schedule?
• How do you handle payment?
There are a range of egress window types available, including:
Single-hung: $100–$400
Double-hung: $250–$500
Horizontal/sliding: $150–$800
Casement: $200–$500
In-swing: $350–$700
When choosing a type of egress window, consider how you’d like to open it. For example, double-hung egress windows open from top to bottom and let plenty of fresh air in, whereas sliding windows slide open for easy access.
